Beautiful Abbey Park is central to the town and was originally the grounds to Evesham Abbey. It is a picturesque setting alongside the River Avon. Boat trips and dragon pedalos run from the park in the summer. On a Sunday afternoon you can listen to music from brass bands whilst the children have a great time in the splash pad. The park also features a play zone which includes an underground bank slide, a trampoline, basket swing, climbing units, wide slide, and a huge sand play area, skate park, lily pool and public art. There is also a kiosk selling snacks and ice creams and it is just a short walk to the many great cafes and restaurants Evesham has to offer. Parking at Crown Meadow provides the most accessible entrance where parking charges have been temporarily suspended for a trial period.
